"I cannot disagree that MDVIP is an expensive proposition. It absolutely is. Dr's. Hammer and Barnes are worth the cost, in my opinion. The access to them and their responsiveness are worth it for my family. Quite frankly, I credit Dr. Hammer with saving my life after a botched surgery. I believe if not for his involvement in my healing after it, I may not be writing this. MDVIP also allows the doctor to be proactive with extra testing and an extensive yearly physical, due to his or her smaller patient base. The extra time spent with patients allows for a thorough picture of health trends and therefore recommendations. MDVIP care is not for everyone. But I am grateful for this new doctor/patient model."

"Top docs!!!! Love the staff!!"

"Best docs ever!"

"I was a long time patient who just got weeded out of the patient list because I fall into the category of disabled, poor, or sensible enough to not pay for a VIP doctor. I can’t afford the new $1800 a year privilege fee. I was led to a room by Dr.Hammer after I was given hope that the money man had some magic answer for me to keep him as my doctor. It was a farce. He just wanted money, he has no answers and actually said he didn't know why I was sent in there. I really didn't need the extra humiliation. As I left I had papers shoved at me and the window closed in my face without a word. The front office staff is absolutely horrible, always was. But I thought of my doctor as a friend. Bottom line they left 6400 patients without a doctor... I don’t care what the reason is... there were better options opposed to letting corporate greed take over. Zero compassion in that and they have successfully ruined my faith in doctors for the last time. But hey I understand... cutting your workload by 90% and making a privilege fee of over a million dollars annually before anything medical happens is hard to pass up."
